In March this year we shared the news that UK & Ireland’s answer to Route 66 to be driven… in an electric car! The route nicknamed ‘Route 57’ covered 2,500 miles across England, Wales, Scotland & Ireland, all driven in a 100% electric Kia Soul EV, supplied by DriveElectric!
Watch this overview of Jess Shanahan’s epic road trip in a Kia Soul EV through bustling cities, quaint villages, and beautiful countryside throughout the British Isles. You can read about Jess’s trip in more detail on the Jury’s Inn site>

If you fancy taking an adventure, check out the Route 57 website which breaks the trip up into 10 smaller road trips so you don’t necessarily have to tackle all 2,580 miles of it all at once. This means you can do one over a week and complete the full trip in sections or you can pick and choose the areas that interest you most. Discover historic cities, tranquil landscapes, diverse coastline, and much more – in days or weeks, depending on how far you want to go!
